>>> Apply/store changes when:  File size reaches as zero 

WHY? I'm guessing you want the size 0 to be interpreted as UNlimited?  But WHY? To make it 'nicely' come every hour on the hour?  Please clarify the BUSINESS REQUIREMENT you are trying to achieve.

HOW? The UI clearly indicated the minimum  is 1, and attempting to set it 0 in the UI will make it 'jump' back to 1. Did you try? Or did you change it in the JSON? Sure you can change the JSON but it may well internally 'jump' back to 1 and you'd be in unsupported territory - is the business ok with that?  It's a free country though - go ahead try!

So the max is 1Terabyte. That's a big file which would take long to transfer and apply. Let's  assume full 10 Gb network transfer. If my math is right than that would take approx 1000 seconds before the work even starts. How long to apply? My guess is longer than an hour and your goal? wish? requirement? of hourly apply would not hold.
 
Just pick 1,000,000,000,000  (1000 GB) if you feel the need, but I suspect the whole solution will work better  with a 10GB file limit.
 
Good luck,
Hein
